Rr-N-Rs is reacted with a compound of the formula YC-C=CH2 in which formulas X is an acylatable amino group, Y is a mobile substituent which can be split olf as anion,

' R R R and R independently of each other each represent a saturated or unsaturated aliphatic radical, a cycloaliphatic, araliphatic, aromatic or heterocyclic radical and each of the pairs R and R and/or R and R together with the amino nitrogen atom also represent a heterocycle which may include further hetero atoms, and

R represents hydrogen or an alkyl radical, to form a compound of the formula wherein R R R R and R have the meanings given above, and R represents hydrogen or a substituent as defined for R More particularly, the invention relates to compounds of the above Formula III in which R, is hydrogen or alkyl with maximally 18 carbon atoms,

alkenyl with from 3 to maximally 18 carbon atoms, unsubstituted cycloaliphatic radicals with 5 to 7 carbon atoms, mononuclear carbocyclic arylalkyl radicals with from 6 to 10 carbon atoms, unsubstituted, lower alkylsubstituted, fluoroalkyl-substituted, chloro-substituted, bromo-substituted, fluoro-substituted and alkoxy-substituted mononuclear carbocyclic aryl radicals,

each of R R R and R have the same meaning as R, except hydrogen, and each of the pairs R -i-R R is hydrogen or alkyl with maximally 3 carbon atoms,

with the proviso that at least one of R and R is hydrogen, particularly in the case of homopolymerization, while, in the case of copolymerization with other monomers, this condition need not be fullfilled.

When each of R R R R and R represents a saturated aliphatic radical then this is, for example, an alkyl group such as the methyl, ethyl, a propyl, butyl, amyl, hexyl, octyl, decyl, dodecyl, tetradecyl, hexydecyl, octadecyl or eicosyl group; and alkoxyalkyl groups such as the 2-methoxy-ethyl, 2-ethoXy-ethyl, 2- or 3-methoxypropyl, 2- or 3-ethoxy-propyl, or 2- or 3-octyloxy-propyl group; an alkylthioalkyl group such as the Z-methyl-thioethyl or Z-ethyl-thioetyl group or a cyanoalkyl group, e.g. the cyanoethyl group. Examples of unsaturated aliphatic radicals R R R R and R are the allyl, methallyl, ethallyl or oleyl radicals, examples of eycloaliphatic radicals are the cyclo'hexyl, phenylcyclohexyl or cyclopentyl radicals, examples of araliphatic radicals are the benzyl, an alkylbenzyl, halogenobenzyl or the phenethyl radical and examples of aryl radicals are the phenyl, diphenyl or an alkylphenyl, a halogenophenyl or an alkoxy-, cyc1oalkoxy-, aralkoxyor aryloxy-phenyl radical or a naphthyl radical. If R and R and/or R and R each together with the amino nitrogen atom to which they are linked, are a heterocycle, then this is, for example, the piperidine or a morpholine ring. R, is hydrogen or, for example, a methyl, ethyl, propyl or =butyl group.

In the meaning of mobile substituent which can be split oif as anion, Y in Formula II is, for example, halogen such as chlorine or bromine, or the radical.

A preferred method of performing the process according to the invention consists in using a compound of Formula I in which X is an NH(R group and a compound of Formula II in which Y is an group, R and R having the meanings given under Formula II.

Examples of compounds of Formula I which are employed by this method are the 2-arnin.o-, Z-arylamino, Z-alkylaminoor 2-aralkylamino 4,6 bis-(disubstituted amino)-l,3,5-triazine compounds.

They are obtained by reacting 1 mol of cyanuric halide with one mol each of the desired amine of the formulas R (R )NH, R.,(R )NH and R NH The reaction is performed in any order desired by the usual methods.

Compounds of Formula II to be reacted therewith are, for example, the halides of acrylic acid, methacrylic acid, ethyl acrylic acid, propyl acrylic acid or butyl acrylic acid; however, the anhydrides of those acids are used advantageously, for example, acrylic acid anhydride.

The reaction is performed at a temperature of about 15 to C., preferably by heating the two starting materials, without or with an inert solvent with a boiling point above 50 C.

Advantageously an excess of compound of Formula II is used. Suitable solvents are, e.g. aromatic hydrocarbons which may be halogenated such as benzene, toluene, 1,2-dichl0robenzene or alkyl halides such as ethylene dichloride. The reaction is performed advantageously in the presence of polymerization inhibitors such as methylene blue, tannin, phenol, resorcin, hydroquinone, quinones, ascorbic acid, isoascorbic acid, phenyl-w-naphthylamine, N,N-di-Z-naphthyl-p-phenylene-diamine, copper powder or certain copper-(ID-salts such as copper-(IU-acetate.

In the aforesaid method, the components are advantageously so chosen that in the end product of Formula III at least one of R and R is hydrogen, since such acyl melamines are suitable for unipolymerization. Polymerization can also be effected when R, is an unsaturated group which is capable of addition, i.e. an allyl or methallyl radical. In principle, all acyl melamine compounds mentioned according to the invention are capable of copolymerisation with other polymerisable substances.

Compounds which can be copolymerised with substances according to the invention are, in principle, all those which contain at least one group wherein from one to two of the three free bonds can also be occupied by hydrogen atoms, which group is capable of addition, for example, esters of unsaturated alcohols such as allyl-, methallyl-, crotyl-, 1-chloroallyl-, 2-chloroallyl-, cinmamyl-, vinyl-, methyl vinyl-, l-phenyl allylor butenyl-alcohol with saturated and unsaturated aliphatic, cycloaliphatic and aromatic monoand polybasic acids such as formic acid, acetic acid, propionic acid, butyric acid, valeric acid, caproic acid, stearic acid, acrylic acid and tit-substituted acrylic acids such as methyl acrylic acid, ethyl acrylic acid, propyl acrylic acid or phenyl acrylic acid or a-acyloxy acrylic acid or ot-halogen acrylic acids such as a-chloroacrylic acid or crotonic acid, oxalic acid, malonic acid, succinic acid, glutaric acid, adipic acid, azelaic acid, sebacic acid, fumaric acid, citraconic acid, mesaconic acid, itaconic acid, aconitic acid, benzoic acid, hexahydrobenzoic acid, phenyl acetic acid, phthalic acid, hexahydrophthalic acid, terephthalic acid, benzoyl phthalic acids or n-butyl sulphonic acid, p-toluene sulphonic acid or cyanuric acid for example triallyl cyanurate; also esters of saturated monovalent alcohols such as methyl-, ethyl-, propyl-, isopropyl-, nbutyl, sec. butyl-, 1,l-dihydroperfluorobutyl-, amyl-, or stearyl alcohol with unsaturated aliphatic monoor polybasic acids such as acrylic acid or methacrylic acid, in addition free unsaturated acids such as acrylic acid, methacrylic acid or phenyl acrylic acid; also vinyl-substituted cyclic compounds such as styrene, mand p-chlorostyrene, -bromostyrene, -fluorostyrene, -methylstyrene, -trifiuoromethylstyrene, -ethylstyrene, -cyanostyrene, di-, triand tetrachlorostyrenes, -bromostyrenes, -fluorosty renes, -methylstyrenes, -ethylstyrenes, -cyanostyrenes, allylcyanostyrenes, int-substituted styrenes and their dervatives substituted in the ring such as: ot-methyl styrene, a-methyl-p-methylstyrene, vinyl naphthalenes, vinyl cyclohexanes, vinyl furans, vinyl pyridines, divinyl benzenes, N-vinyl carbazoles, N-vinyl-pyrrolidiones; unsaturated ethers, e.g. ethyl vinyl ether, diallylor ethylmethallyl ethers; unsaturated amides such as N-vinylor N-allylcaprolactam, or acrylic acid amide, methacrylic acid amide and ethyl acrylic acid amide as well as their N-substituted derivatives, e.g. N-acryloyl piperidine, N- fl-pyrrolidinoethyl acrylic acid amide, N- -diethylaminopropyl methacrylic amide, N-vinyl amides, e,g. N-vinyl- N'-methylacetamide, N-vinyl imides such as N-vinyl phthalimide or N-vinyl succinimide, N-vinyl ureas such as N-vinyl-N'-ethyl urea, N-vinyl urethanes, the nitriles of unsaturated carboxylic acids such as acrylonitrile, methacrylonitrile, ethylacrylonitrile or phenylacrylonitrile, unsaturated ketones such as methylvinyl or methylallyl ketone, vinyl sulphoxides such as methylvinyl sulphoxide, methylene malonic acid esters e.g. methylene malonic acid methyl or ethyl ester, unsaturated aliphatic hydrocarbons such as ethylene, propylene or butadiene such as 1,3- butadiene, isoprene, 2-chlorobutadiene, esters of unsaturated polyvalent alcohols such as vinylene-diol or butene diol with saturated and unsaturated aliphatic and aromatic monoand polybasic acids such as vinylene carbonate, unsaturated glycide esters such s gylcide acrylate,

-methacrylate, -itaconate, -allylphthalate, also vinyl halides such as vinyl fluoride, vinyl chloride, vinyl bromide or vinyl iodide, vinylidene compounds, e.g. vinylidene chloride, vinylidene fluoride, vinylidene iodide vinylidene cyanide, also tetrafluoroethylene or chlorotn'fiuoroethylene, in addition silicium organic compounds such as triethoxy vinyl silicane, trimethyl vinyl silicane and phosphorus organic compounds such as diethylvinyl phosphonate.

The acylmelamines are polymerized or copolymerized, as desired, by known methods, for example, with heat, light (particularly ultraviolet light) and, mainly, with catalysts, especially those which easily form radicals. Suitable catalysts of this type are: inorganic peroxides, e.g. hydrogen peroxide, barium peroxide or magnesium peroxide, or salts of inorganic per acids such as ammonium, sodium or potassium persulphate, percarbonate, perborate or perphosphate; but particularly the following organic peroxides: the dialkyl peroxides with alkyl of up to 18 carbon atoms, namely diethyl, dipropyl, dilauryl, dioleyl, distearyl, di-tert. butyl and di-tert. amyl peroxides, lower alkyl hydrogen peroxides, particularly tert.butyl hydrogen peroxide, tert. amyl hydrogen peroxide, and of the diacyl peroxides, particularly diacetyl, dipropionyl, dilauroyl, dibenzoyl, succinyl or phthaloyl peroxides, coconut oil fatty acid peroxides, acetylbenzoyl peroxides, propionylbenzoyl peroxide and, also, of the terpene peroxides, particularly ascaridol, all of which are defined in the appended claims by the term benzoyl peroxide-type catalyst, and further the azo compounds triphenylmethyl azobenzene, l-azo-bis-1-phenylethane, l-azo-bis-l-p-methoxyphenylethane, l-azo-bis-l-p-chlorophenylethane, 2-azo-isobutyronitrile, 2-azo-isobutyric acid dimethyl and diethyl esters, p,p'-dinitr0-diphenyl-azo-sulphone and potassiumazo-disulphonate, which are defined in the appended claims as azoisobutyronitrile-type catalyst. In some cases, in particular in copolymerisations with other monomers mentioned supra, also certain Lewis acids are suitable as polymerisation catalysts, namely borotrifluorodiethyl ether complexes, concentrated sulphuric acid, as well as such anionic catalysts, as lithium hydride, tetraethyl lithium aluminium, ethyl sodium, butyl lithium, ethyl magnesium bromide or naphthyl sodium.

These catalysts are used singly or, depending on their compatibility, in mixtures also and they are used in a ratio of about 0.01% (calculated on the total weight of the substances to be po-ymerised) up to about 5% by weight.

The polymerization is performed in substance, in solution, suspension or emulsion. If the polymerization is performed in solution, then solvents can be chosen in which either the monomers and also the polymers formed are suitable or in which only the monomers are soluble. Suitable solvents are, e.g. hydrocarbons which may be halogenated, especially benzene, ethylbenzene, toluene, Xylene, chlorinated benzene and chlorinated lower alkanes, particularly ethylene dichloride; other suitable solvents are, in the second line, ethers, e.g. dibutyl ether, esters such as butyl acetate, ketones such as methylethyl ketone or tertiary alcohols e.g. tert. butanol, tert. amyl alcohol or tert.hexyl alcohol etc. Preferred are primary alcohols with maximally 4 carbon atoms, especially for polymerization in solution.

Polymerizates according to the invention are obtained, for instance, by polymerization in solution which is preferably performed at a temperature of at least about 30 C. and higher, and up to the boiling point of the polymerization mixture, in a primary alcohol with maximally 4 carbon atoms, or in a suitable hydrocarbon solvent as mentioned above, and in the presence in the polymerization mixture of an azoisobutyronitrile-type polymerization catalyst.

Other polymers according to the invention are obtained by polymerization in water which is preferably performed at a temperature of about 30 to C. inthe,

presence, in the polymerization mixture, of a benzoyl peroxide-type polymerization catalyst and a minor amount of a suspension stabilizing agent of the polyvinyl alcohol type, or inorganic compounds in the form of water-soluble powders or precipitates (see Schildknecht, High Polymers, X, p. 73 et seq., particularly pp. 80/81 (1956)).

Further polymerizates according to the invention are produced by emulsion polymerization, which is performed at a temperature of about to 90 C., and preferably 30 to 80 C. in the presence, in an aqueous emulsion, of a benzoyl peroxide-type polymerization catalyst, or, preferably a water-soluble peroxide catalyst such as an alkalimetal or ammonium peroxy disulfate, or hydrogen peroxide, or alkali metal perborate and similar water soluble peroxides and peroxy salts, and redox-polymerization catalysts such as K S O +NaHSO as well as a standard emulsifying agent, either of the anionic type, for instance, the sodium salt of sulfonsuccinic acid dioctyl ester, or preferably mixtures of anionic and non-ionic type emulsifiers (see Acrylic Resins by M. B. Horn, p. 106 et seq., Reinhold Plastics Application Series, 1960).

The above described homopolymerizates and copolymerizates can be used alone or in combination with each other for the manufacture of molded articles, coating masses, binding layers such as intermediate layers of safety-glass. Furthermore the polymerizates and copolymerizates may be used as adhesives and for the impregnation of paper. The molded articles can be produced in situ as Well as by subsequent molding of, for instance, polymer granulates, in combination with conventional fillers or other conventional adjuvants under standard conditions of temperature and pressure.

The polymerizates according to the invention, obtained by the above described methods, consist of a plurality of repeating units of the formula wherein R R R R R and R have the same meanings as above, and the average molecular weight of these polymerizates depends on the degree of polymerization, which is preferably equal to at least 40 and higher, up to about 400.

The preferred polymerizates according to the invention then have average molecular weights in the range between 10,000 and 100,000.

The copolymerizates according to the invention obtained as described hereinbefore contain repeating units of the foregoing formula which are interspersed with the repeating units of the copolymerized ethylenic monomer, in a number depending on the weight ratio of the triazine derivatives according to the invention to the said ethylenic monomer.

The new polymeric and copolymeric synthetic substances produced by the use of the acyl melamine compounds of Formula III are distinguished by good thermostability.

Further details can be seen from the following examples. Where not otherwise expressly stated, parts and percentages are given by weight. The temperatures are in degrees centigrade.
